USING
TAPESTRY – HINTS:
- Be sure to select a county. If your
desired Wisconsin county is not on the list, contact
that particular register of deeds at
http://www.wrdaonline.org/
to see if they offer an alternative to Tapestry.
- Take care to set up your search
accurately. Correct spelling of last name is a must, but you do not
need to type in the entire first name. If you are not certain if the
first name is Janet or Jane, just type JAN in the first name field.
Do not use middle initials.
- To get a document copy in Quick Search,
use the first & last name of a grantor or grantee. To get a copy of
a certified survey map, type in the last name field: CERTIFIED
SURVEY MAP #9327 (or whatever the CSM number is.).
- If Tapestry is unable to perform the
search, or if your search yields no records, it will tell you so and
you will not be charged.
- Once you get a list of documents, you can
double click each listing and then select document details
at no extra charge.
